"Gecko"?
Probably because opera/chromium user-agents usually include the keywords
``Mozilla'' and/or ``KHTML, like Gecko'' somewhere in them.
Is that right, John?? Good, I was just about to reply to EE stating
that, "at first, I couldn't think of the third Browser so was going to
put "and some other browsers" in my reply, but then Opera popped into my
mind, so I stuck it in."
Yeah for me!!
Yes, I believe so. Although I have not used anything that's not based on
Mozilla for awhile, it seems as if all modern versions of Opera
advertise Mozilla/Gecko-compatibility in their UA simply for historical
purposes (http://user-agents.me/search?q=32.0.1910.0). I know the older
version either advertised the presto layout engine or Mozilla/Gecko. It
also seems as if all versions of Google's chrome browser advertise
``Mozilla/5.0'' and ``KHTML, like Gecko'' strings in its UA
(http://user-agents.me/search?q=45.0.2438.3).
